Song Fan sensed Song Yin’s animosity directed at her and swiftly turned to confront her. She said firmly, “If you can’t kill me now, I suggest you restrain your malicious glares. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee that you won’t regret it later.”

Song Yin was well aware of Song Fan’s physical prowess. She forced a smile and immediately shifted her expression, fearing Song Fan might resort to violence.

With a disdainful expression, Song Fan turned and left, her contempt for Song Yin’s pretentiousness evident. She couldn’t help but think that Song Yin displayed a different persona to the world compared to her true self, and this duplicity left her with a strong sense of aversion.

Once Song Fan left, Song Yin’s fury consumed her. She vented her anger by hurling a pillow into the living room, an uncharacteristic outburst for someone who had always maintained her composure in front of the servants. Her rage had clouded her judgment.

However, her ire dissipated when a servant delivered an invitation letter from Gu Hai. The letter invited her to attend a banquet, organized as part of Gu Hail s matchmaking plan between Song Yin and Gu Zhuo.

Gu Hai believed that socializing at the ball would naturally allow young people to become acquainted, and the festive atmosphere would help kindle romantic connections. He had invited numerous young individuals to make the event more appealing.

The thoughts of Gu Zhuo’s background and prospects rekindled hope within Song Yin. She began to see the possibilities of her future with someone other than Fu Nian.

Gu Zhuo, oblivious to these developments, was sound asleep when a servant abruptly roused him from his slumber. “Young Master, there’s a banquet tonight. You need to start preparing.”

Gu Zhuo was perplexed. “What banquet? Why haven’t I heard about it?”

The servant assisted him in getting dressed and responded, “Master has invited many guests to our home tonight, and you are the central figure of this event.”

Gu Zhuo couldn’t fathom his father’s motivations and questioned further, “Do you know who has been invited?”

“I don’t recognize many people that Master invited, but he said that we should take good care of Second Miss Song,” the servant replied.

Gu Zhuo immediately understood Gu Hail s intentions. It wasn’t enough for his father to have him enrolled at Eke High School; he wanted to hold a banquet at home to arrange a match between him and Song Yin. It seemed that Gu Hai strongly believed in the rumors surrounding Gu Chen and Song Fan. He was eager to get his son to marry Second Miss Song as soon as possible.

However, Gu Zhuo scoffed at this idea. He didn’t believe that marrying Song Yin would change the situation. Even before these rumors emerged, Gu Hai hadn’t been able to gain the upper hand. Could it be that he hadn’t recognized Gu Chen’s abilities?

Gu Chen had been excelling since becoming the chairman, and many shareholders had thrown their support behind him.

Gu Zhuo had never thought that his father could outmaneuver Gu Chen. He had advised him several times to retire and stay out of the group’s internal conflicts. But his father refused to do so.

He had even chosen to stay overseas and avoid getting involved in the company’s disputes. However, it seemed that his father’s determination to marry him off remained unwavering.

Gu Zhuo allowed the servant to take measurements for his outfit. Then, he took advantage of their momentary distraction and swiftly left the room. Upon running out the door, he hailed a taxi to get to school.

Once at school, he located Song Fan’s number in the teacher’s handbook and called her. “Sister, help!”

Song Fan could discern that it was Gu Zhuo’s voice and retorted, “If you keep shouting, I’ll hang up.”

“Sister, I just need to ask for your help,” Gu Zhuo hurriedly replied. Song Fan was firm in her response. “No.”

They hadn’t known each other for long and weren’t particularly close. Moreover, she sensed that this favor could only lead to trouble, so she was reluctant to agree.

Gu Zhuo had anticipated Song Fan’s initial reluctance and quickly presented his reason. “I really don’t want to attend the banquet with Song Yin. Sister, please help me.”

The mention of Song Yin’s name prompted Song Fan to inquire further. “What banquet are you talking about?”

Gu Zhuo promptly explained the entire situation over the phone, detailing that Gu Hai was planning to host a banquet that evening to arrange a match between him and Song Yin. He emphasized his strong unwillingness to participate and sought Song Fan’s support.

Song Fan didn’t particularly care about who Song Yin married; she could marry whomever she pleased. However, she realized that Gu Zhuo’s situation was intertwined with hers, especially since he had returned due to her deception.

For this reason, Song Fan decided to assist him.

She stated, “I need an invitation to attend the banquet. Once I have that, I’ll do my best to cooperate with you.”

Gu Zhuo, now thrilled, responded, “You don’t need an invitation. I’ll personally come to pick you up….”
